NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

New Rule! he only kicks if it’s worth 3

Thanks, that makes sense. I'm sure there are people smarter than me running marketing for State Farm and they aren't wasting money. It's just not intuitive to me. When I need insurance I compare prices and policies and the commercials have zero impact.

Flo makes $1m per year. That seems insane to me.

You say commercials make no difference, but me ask… if the best price you find is from a company you’ve never heard of, would you have doubts about signing up with them? Most people would.

 

[Catcher Block]

Only two teammates congratulated him

Came to post the same thing. I get that they don't want to make a huge fuss, but go encourage your damn teammate.

 

[tims4wins]

Probably should have iced him.

Unconventional in the 3rd but I kind of like it

 

[TFisNEXT]

This feels like one of those 1990s defensive battles so far.

Ironically the DAL/SF games of the 1990s were not like that though. They resembled the higher scoring of the current era.

 

[luckiestman]

I mean, I feel badly for the guy too. But it’s incredible we’re attaboying a 25 yard chip shot.

Did you see neither the suicide or Jesus commercial?

 

[cornwalls@6]

Do you believe in miracles??

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I’m legitimately happy for that guy.

[8slim]

Wasn’t that a hit to the head?

Cannot imagine how good his exhale felt.

I'm only questioning the frequency, not running commercials in general. I would think there are diminishing returns at some point, like after the fifth Progressive commercial during a game.

 

[Catcher Block]

That zip-line camera seemed to get awfully close to the players.

not defenseless?

Advertising is about repetition.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Ball is snapped and Lawrence is already having a cup of coffee in the backfield

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

not defenseless?

Does that matter?

 

[ifmanis5]

The over/under for this was 46.5. This is a very different game than we expected.

 

[TFisNEXT]

DAL defense has been very impressive so far.

 

[johnmd20]

SF offense is completely out of sync.

Dallas not as much, they have just had two bad INTs.

But Brock is not a lock.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Best unit on the field thus far

 

[Vandalman]

Fake punt for a second, there.

Maybe insurance companies are the only oneswilling to meet the network/NFLs asking price. Perhaps @Average Reds knows more? Not sure if his knowledge extends to commercials for this type of programming.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Best unit on the field thus far

There is a Purdy joke in here somewhere

 

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

Does that matter?

I think what mattered there is the returner lowered his head. That wasn’t going to be a shot to the helmet if he hadn’t done that.

 

[8slim]

not defenseless?

That must be it. I have zero idea what the rules are anymore. I’m sure it’s on page 356, paragraph 4, subsection 2-C.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I said "unit"

 

[luckiestman]

Does that matter?

I don’t know for sure but I think there is the anytime lowering the helmet rule (which I dont think that was) and the head and neck defenseless player rule.

It’s kind of an arms race. If one company is going to blitz NFL programming others feel compelled to match them.

When did we all get so fucking jaded?

The childlike wonder and twinkle in his eye when the father of modern physics learns that he can get an extra Verizon line for $25 is nothing short of magical.

Instead of acting too cool, maybe we should just have some appreciation about the good fortune that someone happened to be there with a video camera to capture the moment.

According to Don Draper, advertising is about happiness.

It’s been a good rock fight. Reminding me of the 1990 NFC title game, when the giants kicked 5 field goals, scored no touchdowns, and still won it.

 

[8slim]

Holy shit that catch. Bad throw to boot.

 

[Ale Xander]

What a catch!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Apparently the pinky was not a factor

 

[BigSoxFan]

CeeDee!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Who was the last Dallas quarterback to throw three INT in a playoff game?

 

[johnmd20]

I do hate that if a ball is underthrown, it's automatically a PI.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Awful throw

 

[ifmanis5]

Incredible catch while being bodied. Semi-Flacco.

Who uses The General sold by Shaq??!

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Didn't love that PI call, Flacco ball.

 

[glennhoffmania]

A good throw is a TD.

 

[8slim]

Who was the last Dallas quarterback to throw three INT in a playoff game?

I’m guessing Danny White.

ngl, Einstein being played by Paul Giamatti makes me forget what the commercial is about.

 

[BusRaker]

Who needs a pinky finger ...

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Who uses The General sold by Shaq??!

People with 10 DUIs.

is that the “just a little gamesmanship, coach”game?
